Microfluidic extensional rheometry using a hyperbolic contraction geometry
Microfluidic devices are ideally suited for the study of complex fluids undergoing large deformation rates in the absence of inertial complications. In particular, a microfluidic contraction geometry can be utilized to characterize the material response of complex fluids in an extensionally-dominated flow, but the mixed nature of the flow kinematics makes quantitative measurements of material f...
متن کاملMeasuring Cell Viscoelastic Properties Using a Microfluidic Extensional Flow Device.
The quantification of cellular mechanical properties is of tremendous interest in biology and medicine. Recent microfluidic technologies that infer cellular mechanical properties based on analysis of cellular deformations during microchannel traversal have dramatically improved throughput over traditional single-cell rheological tools, yet the extraction of material parameters from these measur...
متن کاملExtensional Flow of Bulk Polymers
A standard Instron testing machine, in which crosshead displacement varies linearly with time was modified so that crosshead displacement varies exponentially with time. This change permits testing at constant Hencky strain rate (c = fi/8), which provides a constant stretch history for both simple extensional flow and strip biaxial extensional flow. This results in a visualization of the steady...
متن کاملHuman red blood cell behavior under homogeneous extensional flow in a hyperbolic-shaped microchannel.
It is well known that certain pathological conditions result in a decrease of red blood cells (RBCs) deformability and subsequently can significantly alter the blood flow in microcirculation, which may block capillaries and cause ischemia in the tissues. Microfluidic systems able to obtain reliable quantitative measurements of RBC deformability hold the key to understand and diagnose RBC relate...
متن کاملExtensional flow of a polystyrene Boger fluid through a 4 : 1 : 4 axisymmetric contraction / expansion
The creeping flow of a dilute (0.025 wt%) monodisperse polystyrene/polystyrene Boger fluid through a 4 : 1 : 4 axisymmetric contraction/expansion is experimentally observed for a wide range of Deborah numbers. Pressure drop measurements across the orifice plate show a large extra pressure drop that increases monotonically with Deborah number above the value observed for a similar Newtonian flui...
